FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention is directed to polycyclic heteroaryl substitutedtriazoles and pharmaceutical compositions thereof which are useful asinhibitors of the receptor protein tyrosine kinase known as Axl. Thisinvention is also directed to methods of using the compounds andcompositions in treating diseases and conditions associated with Axlactivity, particularly in treating diseases and conditions associatedwith angiogenesis and/or cell proliferation.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

All of the protein kinases that have been identified to date in thehuman genome share a highly conserved catalytic domain of around 300 aa.This domain folds into a bi-lobed structure in which reside ATP-bindingand catalytic sites. The complexity of protein kinase regulation allowsmany potential mechanisms of inhibition including competition withactivating ligands, modulation of positive and negative regulators,interference with protein dimerization, and allosteric or competitiveinhibition at the substrate or ATP binding sites.

Axl (also known as UFO, ARK, and Tyro7; nucleotide accession numbersNM_(—)021913 and NM_(—)001699; protein accession numbers NP_(—)068713and NP_(—)001690) is a receptor protein tyrosine kinase (RTK) thatcomprises a C-terminal extracellular ligand-binding domain andN-terminal cytoplasmic region containing the catalytic domain. Theextracellular domain of Axl has a unique structure that juxtaposesimmunoglobulin and fibronectin Type III repeats and is reminiscent ofthe structure of neural cell adhesion molecules. Axl and its two closerelatives, Mer/Nyk and Sky (Tyro3/Rse/Dtk), collectively known as theTyro3 family of RTK's, all bind and are stimulated to varying degrees bythe same ligand, Gas6 (growth arrest specific-6), a ˜76 kDa secretedprotein with significant homology to the coagulation cascade regulator,Protein S. In addition to binding to ligands, the Axl extracellulardomain has been shown to undergo homophilic interactions that mediatecell aggregation, suggesting that one important function of Axl may beto mediate cell-cell adhesion.

Axl is predominantly expressed in the vasculature in both endothelialcells (EC's) and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC's) and in cells ofthe myeloid lineage and is also detected in breast epithelial cells,chondrocytes, Sertoli cells and neurons. Several functions includingprotection from apoptosis induced by serum starvation, TNF-α or theviral protein E1A, as well as migration and cell differentiation havebeen ascribed to Axl signaling in cell culture. However, Axl−/− miceexhibit no overt developmental phenotype and the physiological functionof Axl in vivo is not clearly established in the literature.

Angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels) is limited tofunctions such as wound healing and the female reproductive cycle inhealthy adults. This physiological process has been co-opted by tumors,thus securing an adequate blood supply that feeds tumor growth andfacilitates metastasis. Deregulated angiogenesis also a feature of manyother diseases (for example, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis,endometriosis and blindness due to age-related macular degeneration(AMD), retinopathy of prematurity and diabetes) and often contributes tothe progression or pathology of the condition.

The overexpression of Axl and/or its ligand has also been reported in awide variety of solid tumor types including, but not limited to, breast,renal, endometrial, ovarian, thyroid, non-small cell lung carcinoma, anduveal melanoma as well as in myeloid leukemia's. Furthermore, itpossesses transforming activity in NIH3T3 and 32D cells. It has beendemonstrated that loss of Axl expression in tumor cells blocks thegrowth of solid human neoplasms in an in vivo MDA-MB-231 breastcarcinoma xenograft model. Taken together, these data suggest Axlsignaling can independently regulate EC angiogenesis and tumor growthand thus represents a novel target class for tumor therapeuticdevelopment.

The expression of Axl and Gas6 proteins is upregulated in a variety ofother disease states including endometriosis, vascular injury and kidneydisease and Axl signaling is functionally implicated in the latter twoindications. Axl-Gas6 signaling amplifies platelet responses and isimplicated in thrombus formation. Axl may thus potentially represent atherapeutic target for a number of diverse pathological conditionsincluding solid tumors, including, but not limited to, breast, renal,endometrial, ovarian, thyroid, non-small cell lung carcinoma and uvealmelanoma; liquid tumors, including but not limited to, leukemias(particularly myeloid leukemias) and lymphomas; endometriosis, vasculardisease/injury (including but not limited to restenosis, atherosclerosisand thrombosis), psoriasis; visual impairment due to maculardegeneration; diabetic retinopathy and retinopathy of prematurity;kidney disease (including but not limited to glomerulonephritis,diabetic nephropathy and renal transplant rejection), rheumatoidarthritis; osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and cataracts.

“Stable compound” and “stable structure” are meant to indicate acompound that is sufficiently robust to survive isolation to a usefuldegree of purity from a reaction mixture, and formulation into anefficacious therapeutic agent.

“Mammal” includes humans and domestic animals, such as cats, dogs,swine, cattle, sheep, goats, horses, rabbits, and the like. Preferably,for purposes of this invention, the mammal is a human.

“Optional” or “optionally” means that the subsequently described eventof circumstances may or may not occur, and that the description includesinstances where said event or circumstance occurs and instances in whichit does not. For example, “optionally substituted aryl” means that thearyl radical may or may not be substituted and that the descriptionincludes both substituted aryl radicals and aryl radicals having nosubstitution. When a functional group is described as “optionallysubstituted,” and in turn, substitutents on the functional group arealso “optionally substituted” and so on, for the purposes of thisinvention, such iterations are limited to five.

Particularly preferredorganic bases are isopropylamine, diethylamine, ethanolamine,trimethylamine, dicyclohexylamine, choline and caffeine.

A “pharmaceutical composition” refers to a formulation of a compound ofthe invention and a medium generally accepted in the art for thedelivery of the biologically active compound to mammals, for example,humans. Such a medium includes all pharmaceutically acceptable carriers,diluents or excipients therefor.

“Therapeutically effective amount” refers to that amount of a compoundof the invention which, when administered to a mammal, preferably ahuman, is sufficient to effect treatment, as defined below, of a diseaseor condition of interest in the mammal, preferably a human. The amountof a compound of the invention which constitutes a “therapeuticallyeffective amount” will vary depending on the compound, the disease orcondition and its severity, and the age of the mammal to be treated, butcan be determined routinely by one of ordinary skill in the art havingregard to his own knowledge and to this disclosure.

“Treating” or “treatment” as used herein covers the treatment of thedisease or condition of interest in a mammal, preferably a human, havingthe disease or condition of interest, and includes:

(i) preventing the disease or condition from occurring in a mammal, inparticular, when such mammal is predisposed to the condition but has notyet been diagnosed as having it;

(ii) inhibiting the disease or condition, i.e., arresting itsdevelopment;

(iii) relieving the disease or condition, i.e., causing regression ofthe disease or condition; or

(iv) stabilizing the disease or condition.

As used herein, the terms “disease” and “condition” may be usedinterchangeably or may be different in that the particular malady orcondition may not have a known causative agent (so that etiology has notyet been worked out) and it is therefore not yet recognized as a diseasebut only as an undesirable condition or syndrome, wherein a more or lessspecific set of symptoms have been identified by clinicians.

The compounds of the invention, or their pharmaceutically acceptablesalts may contain one or more asymmetric centres and may thus give riseto enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomeric forms that maybe defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (R)- or (S)- or, as(D)- or (L)- for amino acids. The present invention is meant to includeall such possible isomers, as well as their racemic and optically pureforms. Optically active (+) and (−), (R)- and (S)-, or (D)- and(L)-isomers may be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, orresolved using conventional techniques, such as HPLC using a chiralcolumn. When the compounds described herein contain olefinic doublebonds or other centres of geometric asymmetry, and unless specifiedotherwise, it is intended that the compounds include both E and Zgeometric isomers. Likewise, all tautomeric forms are also intended tobe included.

A “stereoisomer” refers to a compound made up of the same atoms bondedby the same bonds but having different three-dimensional structures,which are not interchangeable. The present invention contemplatesvarious stereoisomers and mixtures thereof and includes “enantiomers”,which refers to two stereoisomers whose molecules are nonsuperimposablemirror images of one another.

A “tautomer” refers to a proton shift from one atom of a molecule toanother atom of the same molecule. The present invention includestautomers of any said compounds.

“Atropisomers” are stereoisomers resulting from hindered rotation aboutsingle bonds where the barrier to rotation is high enough to allow forthe isolation of the conformers (Eliel, E. L.; Wilen, S. H.Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds; Wiley & Sons: New York, 1994;Chapter 14). Atropisomerism is significant because it introduces anelement of chirality in the absence of stereogenic atoms. The inventionis meant to encompass atropisomers, for example in cases of limitedrotation around the single bonds emanating from the core triazolestructure, atropisomers are also possible and are also specificallyincluded in the compounds of the invention.

The chemical naming protocol and structure diagrams used herein are amodified form of the I.U.P.A.C. nomenclature system wherein thecompounds of the invention are named herein as derivatives of thecentral core structure, i.e., the triazole structure. For complexchemical names employed herein, a substituent group is named before thegroup to which it attaches. For example, cyclopropylethyl comprises anethyl backbone with cyclopropyl substituent. In chemical structurediagrams, all bonds are identified, except for some carbon atoms, whichare assumed to be bonded to sufficient hydrogen atoms to complete thevalency.

For purposes of this invention, the depiction of the bond attaching theR³ substituent to the parent triazole moiety in formula (I), as shownbelow:

is intended to include only the two regioisomers shown below, i.e.,compounds of formula (Ia) and (Ib):

Utility and Testing of the Compounds of the Invention

The oncogenic RTK, Axl, was recently identified, using aretroviral-based functional genetic screening protocol, as a regulatorof haptotactic migration, which is a key event in angiogenesis. Axlinhibition by RNAi-mediated silencing blocked endothelial cellmigration, proliferation and in vitro tube formation. Theseobservations, which were disclosed at the American Association CancerResearch General Meeting, Apr. 16-20, 2005, Anaheim, Calif., and The 7thAnnual Symposium on Anti-Angiogenic Agents, Feb. 10-13, 2005, San Diego,Calif.; (Requirement for The Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Axl inAngiogenesis and Tumor Growth, Holland, S. J. Powell, M. J., Franci, C.,Chan, E., Friera, A. M., Atchison, R., Xu, W., McLaughlin, J., Swift, S.E., Pali, E., Yam, G., Wong, S., Xu, X., Hu, Y., Lasaga, J., Shen, M.,Yu, S., Daniel, R., Hitoshi, Y., Bogenberger, J., Nor, J. E., Payan, D.G and Lorens, J. B), were substantiated by an in vivo study whichdemonstrated that stable, shRNAi-mediated Axl knockdown impairedformation of functional human blood vessels in a mouse model of humanangiogenesis. These observations were published in a peer reviewedjournal (Holland S J, Powell M J, Franci C, Chan E W, Friera A M,Atchison R E, McLaughlin J, Swift S E, Pali E S, Yam G, Wong S, LasagaJ, Shen M R, Yu S, Xu W, Hitoshi Y, Bogenberger J, Nor J E, Payan D G,Lorens J B. “Multiple roles for the receptor tyrosine kinase axl intumor formation.” Cancer Res. (2005) Vol 65 pp 9294-303. Theseobservations are also disclosed in U.S. Published Patent Application2005/0118604 and European Patent Application 1 563 094, the disclosuresof which are incorporated in full by reference. Axl signaling,therefore, impacts multiple functions required for neovascularization invitro, and regulates angiogenesis in vivo. Regulation of thesepro-angiogenic processes required the catalytic activity of Axl. Thus,Axl-mediated angiogenic stimulation would be amenable to modulation by asmall molecule inhibitor of Axl catalytic activity.

Accordingly, the compounds of the invention are small moleculeinhibitors of Axl catalytic activity, and are therefore useful intreating diseases and conditions which are associated with Axl catalyticactivity including those diseases and conditions which are characterizedby angiogenesis and/or cell proliferation. In particular, the compoundsof the invention and pharmaceutical compositions of the invention areuseful in treating diseases and conditions which are alleviated by themodulation of Axl activity. For purposes of this invention, diseases andconditions which are alleviated by the “modulation of Axl activity”includes diseases and conditions which are alleviated by a decrease inAxl activity and diseases and conditions which are alleviated by anincrease in Axl activity. Preferably such diseases and conditions arealleviated by a decrease in Axl activity. Diseases and conditions whichare alleviated by the modulation of Axl activity include, but are notlimited to, solid tumors, including, but not limited to, breast, renal,endometrial, ovarian, thyroid, and non-small cell lung carcinoma,melanoma, prostate carcinoma, sarcoma, gastric cancer and uvealmelanoma; liquid tumors, including but not limited to, leukemias(particularly myeloid leukemias) and lymphomas; endometriosis, vasculardisease/injury (including but not limited to restenosis, atherosclerosisand thrombosis), psoriasis; visual impairment due to maculardegeneration; diabetic retinopathy and retinopathy of prematurity;kidney disease (including but not limited to glomerulonephritis,diabetic nephropathy and renal transplant rejection), rheumatoidarthritis; osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and cataracts.

In addition to the foregoing, the compounds of the invention are usefulin treating diseases and conditions which are affected by the followingbiological processes: Invasion, migration, metastasis, or drugresistance as manifested in cancer; stem cell biology as manifested incancer; invasion, migration, adhesion, or angiogenesis as manifested inendometriosis; vascular remodeling as manifested in cardiovasculardisease, hypertension or vascular injury; bone homeostasis as manifestedin osteoporosis or osteoarthritis; viral infection as manifested, forexample, in ebola virus infection; or differentiation as manifested inobesity.

One of ordinary skill in the art, withoutundue experimentation may determine preferred aerosols.

The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention may be prepared bymethodology well known in the pharmaceutical art. For example, apharmaceutical composition intended to be administered by injection canbe prepared by combining a compound of the invention with sterile,distilled water so as to form a solution. A surfactant may be added tofacilitate the formation of a homogeneous solution or suspension.Surfactants are compounds that non-covalently interact with the compoundof the invention so as to facilitate dissolution or homogeneoussuspension of the compound in the aqueous delivery system.

The compounds of the invention, or their pharmaceutically acceptablesalts, are administered in a therapeutically effective amount, whichwill vary depending upon a variety of factors including the activity ofthe specific compound employed; the metabolic stability and length ofaction of the compound; the age, body weight, general health, sex, anddiet of the patient; the mode and time of administration; the rate ofexcretion; the drug combination; the severity of the particular disorderor condition; and the subject undergoing therapy. Generally, atherapeutically effective daily dose is (for a 70 kg mammal) from about0.001 mg/kg (i.e., 0.07 mg) to about 100 mg/kg (i.e., 7.0 gm);preferably a therapeutically effective dose is (for a 70 kg mammal) fromabout 0.01 mg/kg (i.e., 0.7 mg) to about 50 mg/kg (i.e., 3.5 gm); morepreferably a therapeutically effective dose is (for a 70 kg mammal) fromabout 1 mg/kg (i.e., 70 mg) to about 25 mg/kg (i.e., 1.75 gm).

Methods: Day 1:

A 96 well TC (tissue culture treated) plate was coated with 10 μg/mLpoly-L-Lysine at 37° C. for 30 min, washed twice with PBS, and air-driedfor 5 minutes before cells were added. Hela cells were seeded at 10,000cells/well and the cells were starved in 100 μL starvation mediumcontaining Axl/Fc for 24 hrs.

Day 2:

The cells were pre-treated with test compounds by adding 100 μL of 2×test compound to the starvation medium on the cells. The cells wereincubated at 37° C. for 1 hr before stimulation.

The cells were stimulated by Axl-antibody cross-linking as follows: A5×1^(st)/2^(nd) Axl antibody mixture was made (37.5 μg/mL 1^(st)/100μg/mL 2^(nd)) in starvation medium and nutated at 4° C. with thoroughmixing for 1-2 hours for clustering. The resulting mix was warmed to 37°C. 50 μL of 5×Axl 1^(st)/2^(nd) of antibody cluster was added to thecells and the cells were incubated at 37° C. for 5 min.

After 5 minutes stimulation, the plate was flicked to remove medium andthe plate was tapped onto paper towels. Formaldehyde (4.0% in PBS, 100μL) was added to fix the cells and the cells were incubated at ambienttemperature for 20 min without shaking.

The cells were washed with a plate washer buffer to remove theformaldehyde solution. The plate was flicked to removed excess washbuffer and tapped onto paper towels. Quenching buffer (100 μL) was addedto each well and the cells were incubated at ambient temperature for 20minutes without shaking.

The cells were washed with a plate washer buffer to remove the quenchingbuffer. Blocking buffer (100 μL) was added and the cells were incubatedat ambient temperature for at least an hour with gentle shaking.

The cells were washed with a plate washer buffer and diluted primaryantibody (50 μL) was added to each well (blocking buffer was added tothe negative control wells instead). The plates were incubated overnightat 4° C. with gentle shaking.

Day 3:

The wash buffer was removed, diluted secondary antibody (100 μL) wasadded, and the cells were incubated at ambient temperature for 1 hourwith gentle shaking. During the incubation, the chemiluminescent reagentwas brought to ambient temperature.

The secondary antibody was removed by washing the cells 1× with washbuffer, 1× with PBS by plate washer. The PBS was removed from the plateand the chemiluminescent reagent (80 μL: 40 μL A and 40 μL B) was addedto each well at ambient temperature.

The resulting chemiluminescence was read with a Luminomitor within 10minutes to minimize changes in signal intensity. After reading thechemiluminescence, the cells were washed 1× with wash buffer and 1× withPBS by plate washer. The plate was tapped onto paper towels to removeexcess liquid from wells and air-dried at ambient temperature for 5minutes.

Crystal Violet working solution (60 μL) was added to each well and thecells were incubated at ambient temperature for 30 min. The crystalviolet solution was removed, and the wells were rinsed with PBS, thenwashed 3× with PBS (200 μL) for 5 minutes each.

5% SDS solution (70 μL) was added to each well and the cells wereincubated on a shaker for 30 min at ambient temperature.

The absorbance was read at 590 nM on a Wallac photospec. The 590 nMreadings indicated the relative cell number in each well. This relativecell number was then used to normalize each luminescence reading.
